The Ego Mind Can Disguise Itself as Love (or the Holy Spirit)

We have an ego and a soul. We are human AND divine, but if we don't truly know our ego, it can disguise itself as Love or even the Holy Spirit, and lead us to behavior that serves its own selfish needs, unknowingly. Example: We give unsolicited advice to our loved one because our ego tells us that we love and care for them. We give them advice they don't ask for "because we are loving." But in real honesty, our ego is so bothered that our loved one won't make similar choices to us and it causes us inner discomfort. So, our ego tries to control our loved one through giving unsolicited advice to fulfill our selfish need of getting rid of our inner discomfort.
